A woman confronting men is a proper subject, it is inexhaustible.

Films with a message just make me laugh.

You have to accept the fact that sometimes you are the pigeon, and sometimes you are the statue.

You make a film to distract people, to interest them, perhaps to make them think, perhaps to help them be a little less naive, a little better than they were.

I like to have the screen full of color, twenty colors on the screen at once, fifty colors. There are no dominants despite what people have said.

I am a Communist, certainly, but that doesn't mean I have to make films about the wheat harvest.

A woman is subject matter enough.
